\nConstruction on the 55,000-square-foot unit, which will have 25,000 square feet of selling space, was expected to begin this month and the opening is planned for summer.<\/p>\n
The groundbreaking was led by Weir’s 95-year-old founder, J. Ray Weir, who launched the store in 1948. He was surrounded by family including grandsons Brooks Weir, director of merchandising and marketing, and Mark Moore, president.<\/p>\n
“We were founded on the principle of working hard to please and serve our customers,” the senior Weir said. “There are a lot of furniture stores, but it is the devotion and service delivered by our people that set us apart.”<\/p>\n
The company declined to disclose its investment in the new showroom or projected sales.<\/p>\n
“We’ve been very blessed \u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 with our current sales and are looking forward to being able to enhance the service we (offer) to the community,” Brooks Weir said.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
The stand-alone store is on Wyndham Plaza property in a fast-growing shopping corridor in affluent Southlake, a northwest suburb of Dallas. Average annual household income exceeds $133,000 within a five-mile radius of the shopping area, according to Kimco Exchange Place, which is marketing the development.<\/p>\n
The new Weir’s “will offer the same warm and inviting customer experience” as its other stores, the company said. Among features the retailer will replicate in the new unit are a country store, a U.S. post office, a Christian Book Nook and a Clearance and More center.<\/p>\n
The other stores are on Knox Street in Dallas and in Lakeside Market in Plano.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
